Abstract
Analyzing the strain expression referring to Castigliano’s Theorem after analysis of the tripod type universal coupling under drawing force comes to the simplified mode of tripod type universal coupling. And with the help of simplified mode, it concludes that the minimum strain occurs when the radius of cross-section of the circlip equals to the depth of groove. After setting material attributes, boundary conditions, contacts of the tripod type universal coupling, and static simulation with the finite element method in SolidWorks, the strain of the universal couplings is carried out. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that when the radius of cross-section of the coupling equals to the depth of groove, the strain is minimum.
